Here’s what others have to say about The King Inside: Practical Advice for Young African-American Males: “There are truths in this country that must be acknowledged if we are ever going to make progress, so whether we like it or not, we must understand that the United States was built on a foundation of racial inequality, so it is important that we are constantly providing tools to our young men so that they can successfully navigate the world we live in, so that we can try and bring this inequality into balance.” Dr Flavius A B Akerele III, Senior Faculty Coleman University, CA and Education Consultant “The King Inside lays the groundwork for our young African American males as they navigate their way through life and the societies they inhabit. Dr. Rouse demonstrates that with hard work and a strong support system, our young black men can become successful regardless of their race, class, and social circumstances. She makes important points when discussing black males within the educational system, and how the value of education is worth reiterating beyond High School. The King Inside is must read and a wonderful guide for people of all ages!” Evan Burnett Youth Counselor, Rochester City School District "If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?" -Psalm 11:3. Foundations determine everything. There's too many useless attempts at living life and not enough of building a life right for living. In The King Inside: Practical Advice for Young African-American Males, Dr. Angelise Rouse challenges our young men to not leave "home" without the fundamentals. Schools are supposed to prepare you academically. Life skills are not high on the list of priorities. This practical tool is a clear guide, that can be in itself a "type" of mentor that will instruct, direct, and position each young man who applies the wisdom and advice written in it for success in life.” Wilbur Brown Special Educator, Seminar Presenter Maryland School District ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Dr. Angelise Rouse’s interest and research focus is on creating a meaningful, lasting and empowering educational experience for students with disabilities.
